Share this: Bill Belichick is an expert when it comes to game-planning, but the same can’t be said about social media. Appearing on WEEI’s Dale and Holley, Belichick was asked about his thoughts on the Steelers’ locker room video following their victory over the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday. As can be gathered from his response, the New England Patriots head coach isn’t exactly an internet maven. “Yeah, as you know I’m not on SnapFace and all that, I don’t really get those,” Belichick told WEEI said.” “I’m just really worried about getting our team ready to go. I’m not really too worried about what they put on InstantChat, or whatever it is.” If Belichick ever decides to build a presence on social media,

Tom Brady Makes Good On Social Media Promise, Gets Instagram Account
Share this: One of the NFL’s elder statesmen is catching up with the times. New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, who runs a pretty successful Facebook page, revealed Thursday he was considering branching out and joining another social media platform. On Friday, TB12 announced he’d narrowed his choices down to four. And on Saturday, Brady made the big reveal: He’s getting an Instagram account. Our money was on MySpace. The Patriots QB passed 100,000 followers in minutes despite not making a single post as of Saturday afternoon. It remains to be seen how much Brady uses his new toy — an offshoot of the “TB Times,” perhaps? — but if he’s any bit as active on Instagram as his wife, he should keep his followers plenty entertained. As for his
It Doesn’t Sound Like Chris Sale Will Be On Twitter, Social Media Any Time Soon
If you want to interact with Chris Sale next season, you’re going to have to do it at Fenway Park. The Boston Red Sox ace spoke to the media after joining the team via trade on Dec. 6, but of course not everything Sale said made it into the mainstream. So when The Boston Globe’s Pete Abraham published some of the more interesting tidbits, Sale’s answer about his social media presence stood out. “Not me, man,” Sale said. “I don’t do any of it. You won’t see me doing that. I stay off Twitter. If there is something I need to know, somebody will tell me.” Sale wouldn’t be the first Red
Microsoft Releases Statement After Bill Belichick Trashes Surface Tablets
by Zack Cox on Tue, Oct 18, 2016 at 4:47PM 1,722 Share this: Bill Belichick laid the smackdown on Microsoft’s Surface tablets Tuesday morning, calling them inconsistent and “undependable” and announcing he no longer will use them on the sideline during New England Patriots games. Belichick’s comments caused quite a stir on social media — Microsoft is, after all, an official sponsor of the NFL — prompting the tech giant to release a statement Tuesday afternoon defending its product. “We respect Coach Belichick’s decision but stand behind the reliability of Surface,” Microsoft’s statement read, via ESPN.com. “We continue to receive positive feedback on having Surface devices on the sidelines from coaches, players and team personnel across the league. In the instances where sideline issues are reported in NFL
Zach Britton Can’t Help But Laugh At Auction For ‘Game-Used’ Jersey From Wild Ca…
Share this: In case you haven’t heard, Baltimore Orioles manager Buck Showalter didn’t put in star closer Zach Britton during their American League Wild Card game loss to the Toronto Blue Jays. It’s been a running joke for social media throughout the Major League Baseball postseason now, but the Orioles accidentally added to it recently on their auction website. The O’s are auctioning off player jerseys from that game, and you’ll see why Britton’s is a little funny. And the best part is Britton got a kick out of it himself. Britton’s jersey was by far the hottest commodity, too, as the highest bid was over $2,000 as of Saturday afternoon. Thumbnail photo via Evan Habeeb/USA TODAY Sports Images More Stories Source link
Randy Moss Gave Trent Dilfer The Dirtiest Look You’ll Ever See On ESPN
Share this: If Randy Moss’ looks could kill, Trent Dilfer definitely would be dead. Dilfer gave his take on Colin Kaepernick’s national anthem protest Sunday on ESPN and Moss didn’t seem too enthusiastic about it. The former NFL wide receiver gave his TV colleague one of the dirtiest faces imaginable, which understandably created a ton of buzz on social media. Was Moss really that ticked off at Dilfer? Who knows? But either way, the face he made was absolutely priceless. Thumbnail photo via Chuck Cook/USA TODAY Sports Images More Stories Source link
Patriots’ Tom Brady Tribute Ensures QB’s Presence Will Be Felt During Suspension
Share this: Tom Brady isn’t allowed to show his face at Gillette Stadium over the next four weeks, but he’ll certainly be there in spirit. The New England Patriots made sure of that immediately. Early Sunday morning, just hours after Brady’s four-game suspension officially began Saturday afternoon, the team directed everyone’s attention to a certain stadium alteration: There’s no text description accompanying this tweet, but in this case, pictures say a thousand words. The Patriots plastered giant images of their All-Pro quarterback on both sides of the stadium’s lighthouse, while also dislpaying Brady’s number at the top of the massive structure. It’s yet another gesture of New England’s ongoing support for Brady during the Deflategate saga; the team’s official Twitter handle also is a photo of Brady’s
